BIS MUST be right.

Why? I have shelved my higher interest rate scenario and have been modelling for steady/lower % rates.

A sure sign they are about to race up! Ahaha

Huge eh? Now all you need is some use for it HAHAHA

More funds to actively trade. The majority of funds are invested in long-term holds and not available for such strategies. I did a comparison a while back and found that based on consistency of returns and considering time taken to trade (unless you have some expensive software to help you), the…[Read more]

Surrey,

Lovely stuff mate, well done.

Redwing,

You mean they charge you an additional fee for the quarterly report… on top of the management fees?

Rob,

It’s not how big it is, it’s how you use it!

>>>I disagree. More funds are required, there is no certainty of setting the ‘spread option’ and I consider returns to be less.<<<

Huh? More funds? returns less? Do you have a clue what I’m talking about? This strategy is far less capital intensive than CC’s and as someone who trades these as my…[Read more]

Just going back to this sentence <<<<I think actively trading your super funds in higher risk investments is a recipe for disaster.>>>>

That is the point of option spreads, to REDUCE risk. CC’s carry more risk than what I’m talking about.

But if you like CC’s that much, don’t let me hold you back Rob!

They have their place, but I don’t like covered calls for the sake of it. There are far better strategies available.

The only situation I like them is if you have some scrip in the bottom drawer doing nothing and you don’t want to sell;…[Read more]

You should check out if you can do the covered calls on the US Stock Market with Aussie super funds.

Yes, and also, is it allowable to do pure option strategies (I suspect not)

Cause if you can find the right volatility skew, you can put together some awesome diagonal spreads(similar concept to what…[Read more]

Well I’ve certainly been involved in some adversarial encounters with Pelican, but with regards to wraps, the comments above seem to be grossly unfair.

I agree Kay.

I met someone from this forum a while ago (shall remain nameless) who did the most amazing thing. They were on the verge of bankruptcy and somehow negotiated their way into a single payment to all creditors which, if I remember correctly, was only about 20% of all monies owing. The creditors…[Read more]
